Hardware Installation Procedure
STEP 1: After removing NPort 5400 from the box, the first thing you
should do is attach the power adaptor.
STEP 2: Connect NPort 5400 to a network. Use a standard straightthrough Ethernet cable to connect to a Hub or Switch. When setting up
or testing NPort 5400, you might find it convenient to connect directly
to your computer’s Ethernet port. In this case, use a cross-over
Ethernet cable.
STEP 3: Connect NPort 5400’s serial port to a serial device.
STEP 4: Placement Options
Wall or Cabinet Mounting
The NPort 5400 comes with two metal attachment plates for attaching
the NPort 5400 to a wall or the inside of a cabinet. First, use two
screws per bracket to attach the brackets to the rear of the NPort5400.
Next, use two

diameter, and the shafts should be less than 3.5
diameter, as shown by the figure at the right.
DIN-Rail Mounting
DIN-rail attachments can be purchased separately to attach the product
to a DIN-rail. When snapping the attachments to the DIN-rail, make
sure that the stiff metal springs are at the top.
